THE PROOF.


1t is astonishing what Indifference claimants
manifest in their own interests in the matter
of furnishing proof. They should remember,
in spite of idle gossip, that there is no royal
road to the pension rolls, aud that the mount
ain does not go to Mahomet, but rather the
latter must come to the mountain, hence the
evidence will not seek the claimant; he must
and should seek it. Thousands of claims
pending for years, and which, if completed
woald carry arrearages are, through indiffer-
ence, poverty, and want of some personal aid
permitted to remain suspended. The place
OF organization Is likely TO be the place
of return as chickens come home to roOst" +"
and is the place, in and around, to seek this
proof. Claimants not blessed with good
memory, or the facility Of writing, should make
an effort to 90 in person and use every means
of obtaining a Glow to the cardinal legal re-
quirements of incurrence, in the service, at
such place. If otherwise constituted, this may
be equally attained by persistent and intelli-
gent correspondence.

New YORK, March 21.-The develop
ments to-day seem to point strongly to the
Atchison as the corporation that will ulti-
mately acquire control of the Baltimore Il
Ohio road. This view is believed to be
confirmed by the frequent conferences
which have lately been held at the office of
Frank G. Hollins IL Co., at which Irving
A. Evans, of Boston, was present. Among
others present at different times were John
ID. Perry, of st. Louis, Morrison. of the

G. II. Andrews, of the PittSburg, Cincin-
natl & Toledo. and D. l.. Wing, president

which property, it is stated, has already
been sold to new interest. While on his
Western trip Mr.. Hollins closed contracts
for IL immediate construction of 81 miles
of the Central Missouri ksystem. 1t is
